Unleash the Power: the Anthony Robbins Biography

I have never encountered anybody in the personal development industry as effectively and instantly empowering as Anthony Robbins. It has also been my ultimate dream to personally attend his seminar after I devoured three of his bestselling books, namely, Unlimited Power, Awaken the Giant Within, Giant Steps and Notes to a Friend. Now, I am thoroughly enjoying and applying his His best-selling personal development audio series Personal Power lent to me by an angel of a friend, the President of Fortune100 Coach, Int'l. and former Robbins Coach, Bjorn Martinoff, http://www.fortune100coach.com/.


Now, that dream is within reach. Anthony Robbins is coming to Asia this year. He will only be holding one session of his life-changing self-development seminar, "Unleash The Power Within - The Firewalk Experience", in Singapore on the 4th to 7th of September 2009 at the Singapore Expo.

Below is the bio of Anthony Robbins I found to best describe his spectacular personal and professional development story from a person with no formal leadership or coaching training to the rockstar of the leadership development, self-help, training & development and personal empowerment industry.


Anthony Robbins is the undisputed and truly inspirational world authority on the psychology of leadership and peak performance. In three decades of interaction with individuals from all walks of life, Anthony Robbins has developed an incredibly powerful portfolio of coaching systems and life philosophies designed to improve the quality of people’s lives. To date, Anthony Robbins has directly impacted the lives of more than 50 million people from more than 100 countries with his life coaching systems, health products and live events.

Best-selling author, motivational speaker, and advisor to world leaders, business leaders, sports professionals and people the world over, he has transformed his own life and that of countless others, teaching people how to master the skills of success and fulfillment in their personal, professional and financial lives. His teachings focus on emotional and physical health, personal and business relationships, leadership, time management, finances and professional growth.
Born in a leap year on February 29, 1960 in California USA, he studied Neuro Linguistic Programming (NLP) in his late teens, and went on to develop his personal Diamond method, earning a name for himself in helping people free themselves from their fears and phobias. He quickly became very popular and was soon earning a very substantial income for someone so young.

Distracted by his early success Tony soon lost his direction in life. Struggling to pay his bills, overweight and alone, he decided it was time for action, and made a personal commitment to change his life forever. He started developing life coaching systems designed to turn people’s lives around, and NLP became an integral part of his philosophy and teachings, as it is today. His popular motivational technique ‘neuroassociative conditioning’ was developed from the fundamentals of NLP.

His big break came on a radio show in Canada, when he challenged anyone to show him a fear or phobia that he couldn’t cure. A doctor with a long-term patient immediately responded, and in a much publicised and entertaining evening at a local hotel the scene was set for an exciting showdown. Tony used his NLP skills and within a few moments the patient was completely cured of her snake phobia – comfortably sharing centre-stage with her new wriggly friends!
The publicity generated by this event elevated Tony to instant superstar status, and within a year he was living in his dream home on the Californian coast, a self-made multi-millionaire! He started helping the rich and famous, and superstars including Michael Douglas, Andre Agassi, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sir Anthony Hopkins and many more flocked to him for help and advice.
Anthony Robbins became a sought after strategic advisor to world leaders, and has met, consulted or advised such eminent leaders as Nelson Mandela, Mikhail Gorbachev, Margaret Thatcher, Francois Mitterand, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Colin Powell, Princess Diana and Mother Teresa.

His self-help books became instant best-sellers that were published in 14 languages around the world, including Unlimited Power, Awaken the Giant Within, Giant Notes and Notes from a Friend. His best-selling personal development audio series Personal Power broke all records by selling 25 million tapes in less than 5 years. Through his live seminars Tony has motivated more than a million individuals worldwide. His series of 4 ‘infomercials’ have been aired roughly every 30 minutes on TV somewhere in America – since 1989!

Anthony Robbins has travelled all around the world over to meet some of the greatest contemporary leaders in his constant quest for the secret ingredients of success. He is gifted with unique abilities to discover and define the key elements that make up the most successful individuals in the world, and to successfully communicate these professional skills to others. His vibrant personality and communication skills make his seminars intensely educational yet always entertaining. He has mastered the art of grasping complexities and restructuring them into user-friendly tools and strategies that can be applied to real life.

Anthony Robbins is the founder and dean of Mastery University which provides a specialist 3-part educational program designed for leaders. Members of the faculty include Tony Robbins himself, General Norman Schwarzkopf, Dr Deepak Chopra (wellness expert), Dr John Gray (relationship expert), Sir John Templeton (billionaire investor), Dr Caroline Myss (human energy specialist) and Chris Carmichael (Lance Armstrong’s physical trainer).
